Check out my new book, Flowers of Volunteer Park Conservatory.
And welcome to Sara's Fave Photos Blog at Love That Image. My goal is to take a photo that is as compelling and beautiful as in real life, with no or minimal Photoshop work. You may copy a photo but link to lovethatimage.com. Thank you for your thoughtful comments, and thanks for visiting.

Old upholstered chairs with carved wood and tufted backs still have some faded glory.
